January 31, 2021 YvonneLeave a comment

Making memories

January 23, 2021 YvonneLeave a comment

I woke up from a nap (rare opportunity) and wondered what the girls might be up to. My husband was also on the couch relaxing with me.

Choose Better

January 9, 2021 YvonneLeave a comment

When the world and what’s happening around us begins to feel heavy and out of control, I have to stop and remind myself that everything is a choice. I get to choose the energy that I allow to rest inside me, the thoughts that I let linger in my mind, and most importantly what I… Continue reading Choose Better

The Greatest Hope

January 6, 2021 YvonneLeave a comment

Since going back to work again this Tuesday I’ve had a hard time being able to find quiet space before getting ready for work to journal and read my bible.

January 2, 2021January 2, 2021 YvonneLeave a comment

Are your first morning habits helping you grow or hindering you? I did some serious reflecting on this last night after I ran across this image saved in my phone’s photo gallery.
